Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After hearing what Chu Suiliang said, Xu Jingzong sneered twice and said nothing more.  But he knew that Chu Suiliang's final choice was the same as his own.

    Although Chu Suiliang has an idealistic side, he is also a worldly person. Even if he does not consider it for himself, he must also consider it for his father, Chu Liang, one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, and the Chu family who moved to Guanzhong.

    So the two began to compile history. Using the so-called praise and blame, Spring and Autumn style of writing, Li Yuan was written in the Wude Shilu as a lustful and cowardly person. When he was in Jinyang, Li Yuan did not want to raise an army, but he designed a night stay for Li Shimin and Pei Ji.  Jinyang Palace, the palace maids, finally had no choice but to raise troops.

    In this way, the main plot of Jinyang's uprising fell on Li Shimin. Except for Li Yuan, the rest of the heroes such as Princess Pingyang and Li Tang's uprising were belittled.  All the credit is given to Li Shimin in order to highlight his abilities.

    Later, it was fabricated out of nowhere that Li Yuan had repeatedly wanted to let Li Shimin replace Li Jiancheng as the crown prince, but Li Jiancheng destroyed them all.  In order to make the final Xuanwumen incident justifiable, Xu Jingzong also fabricated many things about the prince's immoral behavior, such as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji colluding with Zhang Jieyu and Yin Defei in the harem, and secretly raising dead soldiers, regardless of brotherhood,  He plotted against the King of Qin many times.

    In the end, Li Shimin had no choice but to raise troops at Xuanwu Gate to kill Li Jiancheng and force Li Yuan to abdicate. The matter was also briefly mentioned. It was said that Li Yuan regretted his past mistakes, realized that he had been deceived by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and took the initiative to pass the throne to "Chang" Feng" Literature.  {cf}{wx}.To Li Shimin.

    In the National History Museum, Chu Suiliang sneered at Xu Jingzong after writing half of the book: "After this book is published, future generations will think that as long as you have power and merit, you can become the emperor, and rebellion can be justified. From then on, everyone in the world admires power.  . And the etiquette system has declined."

    Xu Jingzong spread his hands and said: "There is nothing wrong with this, as long as your majesty is wise enough to make the people healthy, then everything is not solved. According to what you said, Cao Cao and Sima Yan did something wrong?"

    Chu Suiliang shook his head and said: "For the country, a stable system is far better than a sage monarch. At least Cao Cao and Sima Yan usurped the throne, but they did not modify the history books and whitewash it for themselves. And what your Majesty did today is despicable.  Called the first person in the ages."

    Xu Jingzong said: "Okay, okay. I won't tell you anymore, just do whatever you want."

    At present, Xu Jingzong ignored Chu Suiliang and continued to compile the book.  Chu Suiliang glanced at Xu Jingzong, sneered and said to himself: "If Li Tang conquers the world, then all the truth will be buried. No matter how ignorant the world is, fortunately, there is still Zhao State. If the Tang Dynasty becomes Zhao State in the future  If he is destroyed, then this book will be the evidence of his crimes in the world today, enough to make him infamy for thousands of years."

    Hebei.  Liyang City.

    For Zhao State, Liyang City is a blessed place. After capturing Liyangcang, Li Chongjiu obtained enough military rations to support the war in the Central Plains.  Thus sweeping across Henan.  And now Li Chongjiu secretly moved the base camp of this expedition to Tang Dynasty from Youjing to Liyang City.

    In February, after Li Chongjiu secretly established the throne, he took a boat and arrived at Liyang City lightly.  Here Li Chongjiu and his staff were strategizing together.  Plan the final battle against Li Tang.

    In the base camp, the generals of the Zhao army are now noisy.  This is not the first quarrel.  Henan and Hedong present.  Several important generals in Hexi are all world-famous people, but when they were arguing with each other, they showed no grace at all.  What they were arguing about was whether to attack Guanzhong during the decisive battle, which route should be based on Hedong, Hexi, or Henan?

    The following military commanders in all aspects, Wei Chigong, Xu Shiji, Xue Wanche, Wang Mahan, Wang Junkuo, and Ying Hefu, all wanted to take over the main offensive task on themselves.

    Wang Junkuo and Yinghefu advocated attacking from Hexi the loudest because it was convenient for the prairie cavalry regiment to attack. After the loss of the Hetao, there was no geographical advantage for Li and Tang in Hexi to defend.  What's more, Duan Decao is already independent. If Zhao Jun attacks from here, he can make an emergency landing on Duan Decao and then take advantage of the situation to attack Guanzhong.

    As for Hedong, it was Yuchi Gong and Xue Wanjun who advocated attacking Guanzhong from Hedong. After the surrender of Lujiang King Li Yuan, Yuchi Gong captured the three counties of Hedong of Litang and Tang Dynasty, causing the Hedong defense line of Litang to almost collapse.  With the three counties in Hedong, the Zhao army's attack distance on Chang'an was greatly shortened.  Sending troops from Hedong has the shortest march route among the three routes, and the supply line is also the shortest. If the journey goes smoothly, Zhao Jun can reach Chang'an City within five days.  This was also the route Li Yuan used to raise his troops in Jinyang.  If Pujin Pass is breached, Chang'an will be across the river.

    Finally, Luoyang was proposed by Henan Daoxingtai, Xue Wanjun, Wang Mahan, Xu Shiji and others.  There is a good reason for Daoxingtai in Henan Province. Almost all Zhao Junfu troops are gathered here. This is the place where Zhao Jun's military strength is the strongest.  Attacking Luoyang from Henan, although facing the natural danger of Tongguan, the Henan Zhao army could not directly attack Tongguan, but bypass it, attack Wuguan and enter the pass.??.  Entering Guanzhong from Wuguan is also the same route Liu Bang used to destroy Qin.

    The only ones who did not say anything were Song Jingang and Xiao Xian, two important generals in Jiangnan Daoxingtai, because they knew that no matter what, the main attack direction was Guanzhong, and it would not be Jingxiang or Bashu's turn. When the decisive battle came, they would at most contain Li Jing.  of troops, preventing them from returning to Guanzhong to aid.  So they just sat aside and watched with great envy as several generals fought for the main attack.

    They also all know why the generals argued so fiercely, because the Battle of Pingtang was the largest battle of the Zhao State. After the Tang Dynasty was destroyed, it is very likely that there will be no large-scale wars in the Zhao State in the future. Even if there are large-scale wars  , and can't compete with this battle.

    Therefore, the battle to conquer the Tang Dynasty was a must-win for all generals. Whoever performed well in this battle would not only be recorded in the annals of history, but would also be awarded officials and titles, and his descendants would be prosperous.  Seeing that the opportunity is at hand, it has become an extremely urgent matter for the generals to strive to seize the main attack in front of His Majesty.

    After the generals finished their speeches, they all looked at Li Chongjiu, waiting for his decision.

    Li Chongjiu glanced at the generals, looked at Zhang Xuansu who had been silent and asked: "Zhang Aiqing, what do you think?"

    Zhang Xuansu, Li Chongjiu's chief adviser, stood up and said: "In this attack on the Tang Dynasty, no matter which route is the main force, the most important thing is the movement of Li Shimin's troops in Chang'an. Our army's separate attack speed is fast enough to make it miss the attack. Such three routes  The army is encircling Chang'an City, so even if Li Shimin has overwhelming power, he will not be able to reverse the situation of the war."

    "But there are three groups of people, some are fast and some are slow. It is difficult to do this, so we can only do the second best. We must mobilize the main force that Li Shimin gathered in Guanzhong. It is best to keep him hanging in Chang'an.  Outside, fight us in a decisive battle. Let us concentrate more than two lines of troops and launch an attack on Li Shimin! Only in such a decisive battle will we have a better chance of winning."

    "If there is improper cooperation and delayed march, it will be easy for Li Shimin to defeat each other. Therefore, the strategy of dividing and attacking together needs to be cautious. No matter which route is the main attack, we cannot advance lightly, let alone let Li Shimin judge the direction of our army's main attack."

    Yu Shinan on the side said: "What Zhang Shilang said makes sense. This time we conquer the Tang Dynasty, one battle will determine the world, so we take the strategic goal of directly attacking Guanzhong and capturing Chang'an. At the same time, we must also prevent Li Shimin from retreating from Guanzhong into Bashu and take advantage of the danger."  If we keep it, it will take another two to three years before we can pacify the world."

    Li Chongjiu said: "Yu Aiqing's concerns are justified. I cannot allow Li Shimin the opportunity to retreat from Chang'an to Guanzhong."

    Li Chongjiu walked to the map, pointed at it with his bamboo stick and said: "I have decided to mobilize troops to gather in the Jingxiang area. There are 20,000 naval troops, 30,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry in Daxingtai, Jiangnan Road. I have decided to use them from  Shangyong invaded Hanzhong, attacked Li Tang's Badong County, and cut off Li Shimin's retreat from Guanzhong to Bashu. What do you think?"

    Song Jingang and Xiao Mian looked at each other next, both showing expressions of surprise.  I thought I had no chance to join in the fun, but I didn't expect that Li Chongjiu would entrust them with this important task.

    Song Jingang said: "Your Majesty, this is a brilliant strategy. The Tang army in Xiangyang is a tough nut to crack. Even if we capture Xiangyang, it won't be of much help to our main force in attacking Guanzhong. Instead, it would be better to invade Hanzhong.  The threat from Chang'an is even greater."

    Xiao Xian said: "I agree with General Song's opinion. Although the naval force we trained for a year in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in order to attack Xiangyang will be useless in this battle. But if we can bypass Xiangyang and capture Hanzhong, it will be of great benefit to us.  The military¡¯s battle in Guanzhong will undoubtedly help even more.¡±

    At this time, Xue Wanche heard that Song Jingang and Xiao Mian had taken on such an important task, and he couldn't help but want to get involved.  Xue Wanche said: "Jiangnan soldiers are good at water warfare, but they are mediocre. Hanzhong is a mountainous area. I'm afraid the battle will be disadvantageous. Our armed guards can support five thousand troops and follow you into Hanzhong."

    Before Xiao Mian could speak, Song Jingang rebuffed him: "Don't worry General Xue, I, Song, am proficient in both water warfare and infantry warfare. Besides, the Tang army does not have a general guarding Hanzhong, so you should keep it."  Let¡¯s see if we can capture Tongguan!¡±

    ??

    Seeing that the two generals were at war with each other, everyone also tried to persuade them to leave.  Zhao Jun has conquered the world in recent years. From the generals down to the soldiers, they are all arrogant. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are arrogant soldiers and powerful generals.  Several generals were dissatisfied with each other, and Li Chongjiu also intended to cultivate such a competition mechanism among the generals.  How can a general have no pride?

    Li Chongjiu glanced at the generals and said: "Okay, everyone, I have a comprehensive plan in mind for the attack on the Tang Dynasty. You can just follow orders and act!"

      Hearing what Li Chongjiu said, all the generals agreed
